Abstract


In this paper is discussed the impact of new technologies on cartography, respectively on dynamics and content of cartographic representations. With the advent of new technologies, the way of creating and presenting spatial data is changed, which has caused cartography as a science being changed as well. Namely, it is necessary to accept new technological challenges and representation possibilities in cartography, and above all, the Internet as a medium for communication, distribution and representation of geospatial reality. Geospatial data in digital (raster or vector) form is becoming more and more up-to-date and available to interested beneficiaries for their daily use. Cartographic representations in digital form are not ordinary graphic-artistic expressions or visualizations of geospatial reality, but possess certain potential possibilities of interaction, dynamics, animation and multimedia in representation and communication.

Keywords: new technologies, cartographic representation, interactivity, dynamics, animation, virtual reality
